Pennsylvania Women Work is excited to be an active partner of the One Northside Initiative!

A survey of Pittsburgh’s Northside residents, the We’re Making the Northside 2015 Consensus Plan, finds “the #1 response for what would help people find work who need it is knowing what opportunities exist.” Northside parents are also seeking a parent resource network, job and internship opportunities, and help with childcare.

PA Women Work is stepping up to help these parents pursue prosperous careers; we will deliver our New Choices and GROW career development programs in the Northside.

Both GROW and New Choices emphasize work readiness and career planning to help individuals achieve family-sustaining employment.

We also rely on an ever-expanding team of employer partners who comprise our Corporate Advisory Committee. These employers inform the design of our programming and work with us to connect clients with jobs.

Through serving parents, we hope our efforts will have long-term impacts as we support their children’s development and future success. We are excited to empower our community’s youth to flourish and to contribute to strengthening Northside neighborhoods both socially and economically.
